Potential DB class is more likely this:

DB:
Shepard
Darby
Wright/Rios/Adams/Poole/Redmond

S:
Baratti
Turner
Prosise
Shumate/Cox

Pick 2 +1 (maybe) for the remainder of the class

Baratti could play the nickleback role in the future like Slaughter has, but I don't think he's big enough for OLB.

Yup, just everything we already know.

Spoke with coaches last week about the mutual interest.
Will visit with teammate Elijah Shumate.
Planned on making decision at Army All American game but could push it back to take all visits.

My friend's a Michigan fan and believes he's Michigan's to lose.

Michigan fans think every recruit is their's to lose.

Wright has had interest in us for a while, so I like our chances with a strong visit.

He's not. Michigan is cocky because they've landed a bunch of 3:s:/4:s: players and some very talented OL prospects looking for immediate PT. It's going to be funny when their class drops to ~#7 or 8 as top prospects start committing... even though they will have around 30 commits.

Yes, Michigan has a very real shot here. No, they are not out in front of the others.

So as far as we know everyone's even? He hasn't hinted about a leader?

He actually mentioned ND and Rutgers as early favorites months ago. All the Bosco kids have not done much with recruiting so nobody knows a whole lot to this point.

If I had to guess right now, its Rutgers.

Nah, that's kinda my point. It's anyone's ball game. Rutgers is one constant that always pops up... but I really think Georgia is a strong contender. Many people think Michigan is a "leader" because he made an OV there, but really Cal, Colorado and ND all have just as good of a shot at landing him as Michigan does.

So really take 1/6 = 17% and that is the chance Michigan lands Yuri Wright. Could definitely happen... but he's wide open right now. It's not like, say, Keith Marshall who was truly Georgia's to lose and (barring 11th hour Clemson bag man) they didn't.

Wright postponed his November visit to Michigan so he hasn't visited yet. He will try and make it out sometime in January.

Oh good to know I thought he made the trip on the 25th. Reps.

He is going to Colorado this weekend first, though, so ND will be his second OV.

This could be the year for duo's. Tee and Greenberry, Adams and Payton, Yuri and Shumate. No complaints here.

Adams and Payton is a very, very real possibility. Straight talk.

Not happening.



People are way too confident with Agholor.

Look out for next year's duo of cousins, Leon McQuay III and Richard Benjamin.

Many people think we are leading for Payton right now. If we land Payton it is a very legit possibility to land Adams as well. Glad to see your optimistic though.

with michigan landing Amara Darboh the odds of ND getting payton has just gone up even more. i would also agree that if we get payton then getting adams might not be far off.

also has the ND staff talked to adams abut possobly playing rb at ND? his rb film is very impressive, a well built 5'10 player who's got great speed and is a slasher type. this might be something for the ND staff to look into.

A former teammate of Yuri's at DB, RB Tony Jones, also went to Colorado and speaks very highly of it there.
